About this listen

Can the family keep safe from harm?

1926: The murderer Gerald Ponsonby has been caught, thanks to Boots, and is facing trial. He hates Boots and the whole Adams clan and is hungry for revenge.

When a dapper, quiet, but rather odd lodger turns up at Doreen Paterson's house, nobody thinks anything is amiss. Certainly not Doreen - who works for Boots in Adams Enterprises and thinks him just wonderful....

Could the strange lodger be plotting the downfall of the irrepressible, outrageous, and larger-than-life Adams clan?

A Family Affair is the fifth in Mary Jane Staples's Adams Family series. Their story continues in Missing Person. Have you heard the first four Adams Family novels?

I am really getting into listening to these book I've listened to 1 and 2. Mary Jane Staples takes my back to my childhood, I was born early 50s but the things mum would tell me about her childhood. Annie Albrighton is a great story teller, I do hope she is nattor to all of this series.

Lovely book
